Praise and Prayer

April  2009

Dear IVCF Family & Friends,

“The LORD bless you and keep you;
the LORD make his face shine on you and be gracious to you;
the LORD turn his face toward you and give you peace.”
Numbers 6:24-26.

This is our prayer for you, our dear faithful prayer partners and generous ministry supporters.  The Lord had been answering our prayers.  We are experiencing God’s goodness.

It is summer time again.  This is our peak time for camps and conferences.  God is using IVCF Philippines to touch the lives of many students and graduates.  Most of the field staff are at KC pre camp.  Those who are in charge of the high school camps are busy with their preparations. It will be another batch of students and graduates to minister to and to equip.  New lives to be transformed and be used for His glory.

We covet your prayers.  Please pray for us:

• For all our camps and conferences. Pray for all the details in preparation, execution and post camp details. Also pray for good health, good weather, traveling mercies and provision.
• Pray for all the staff involved for wisdom and strength.
• Praise the Lord for all the invited speakers, counselors and volunteers. Pray that as they minister, they will also have wonderful experience with God and the delegates .
• For all students and graduates who will attend.  Pray that they will experience the Lord in a fresh way and motivation in living His life all the more.
• Pray for the national summer camps’ and conference’s subsidies. We still need about Php 200,000.00 for KC, GT con and Operation Samaria.  Pray too for provision for our regional summer camps.
• Pray for a meaningful visit with Mr. ung Sheop Shin, the East Asia Regional Secretary. He will join us at the Kawayan Camp on April 17.

I appreciate all your prayers and support.  You have blessed us in so many ways.  Praises be to our God.

Your servant-leader,

Erickson Velardo, National Director
